Takashi Baba - Kuro Bizen Yunomi

8,800 YEN

size : W8.9cm×8.8cm×H7.6cm

This is a Kuro Bizen Yunomi (Hidari-uma) by Takashi Baba,
an artist born in Imbe who has loved Bizen ware since childhood
and finds joy in both creating works and firing kilns.

Fired in June 2025 in his newly designed noborigama,
the piece bears the auspicious Hidari-uma mark incised on the front.

This Yunomi is a fine example of Baba’s signature tsuchi-nuri (slip-coated)
Kuro Bizen technique.
The black slip, thoroughly fired in the new kiln, displays a subdued, gunmetal-like sheen
across the entire surface.

Along the rim, natural ash carried by the flame has formed Nagare-Goma,
creating a vivid contrast—luminous, flowing ash patterns standing out beautifully
against the deep black background.

The rim is finished slightly thinner, giving the piece excellent versatility:
it can be enjoyed not only as a Yunomi but also as a beer mug or a rocks glass.



Toukoubou Yu - Imbe Yunomi

11,000 YEN
Sold out

size : W6.4cm×6.3cm×H8.0cm

They inherit the careful and quiet style of Yuho Kaneshige.
They were too afraid to use Bizen clay when the studio was first formed.
You can tell they take very good care of their clay.
On the inside, fine and closely spaced potter’s wheel marks remain,
while the outer surface has been thrown so as to leave as few wheel marks as possible,
creating a strikingly different impression when viewed from both the inside and outside after finishing a drink.
This quiet style directly translates into excellent usability.
The thinly crafted rim and the gently fitting body are superb.
To the touch, the surface is so fine that one might imagine a dusting of powder clinging to the fingers—
an exquisite texture on par with Yuho Kaneshige’s renowned Shiro Chawan.

Takashi Baba - Oribe Yunomi Hidariuma

8,800 YEN
Sold out

size : W8.9cm×8.7cm×H8.4cm

Born in Imbe and a lifelong admirer of Bizen, Takashi Baba finds joy in both making and firing. This newest Oribe Yunomi was fired in June 2025 in a newly designed noborigama, with an auspicious Hidari-uma incised on the front.

Formed on a base of Shigaraki clay and finished with a vivid green Oribe glaze, it is a genuine Oribe work that reflects Baba’s keen pursuit of glaze research. Along the rim are traces of natural ash borne on the flame, and in the mikomi the pooled Oribe has shifted under the ash’s influence toward an amber-like tone.

Though the rim is glazed, it has been finished thin, giving the piece versatile utility—enjoyable not only as a Yunomi but also as a beer mug or a rocks glass.



Takashi Baba - Bizen Kuro Yunomi Hidariuma

8,800 YEN
Sold out

size : W9.0cm×8.9cm×H7.3cm

Born in Imbe and a lifelong lover of Bizen, Takashi Baba finds joy in both making and firing. This is his newest black Bizen Yunomi, fired in June 2025 in a newly designed noborigama, with an auspicious Hidari-uma incised on the front
(the mirror-image “uma” mark traditionally used at a kiln’s inaugural firing).

A black-slip Bizen that pairs a bold, modern design with a stylish surface. Thorough firing has given the black slip a subdued, gun-metallic sheen—an attractively metallic skin that draws the eye.

Along the lip are traces of Kigoma borne on the flame; across the front it partially melts the black slip, forming dark nagare Goma. Although the rim is slip-coated, it has been finished thin, making the piece versatile—equally enjoyable as a Yunomi, a beer mug, or even a rocks glass.



Yoshiteru Takariki - Bizen Hikidashi Katakuchi Sake pourer

9,900 YEN
Sold out

size : W10.8cm×8.0cm×H9.7cm

A freshly fired Bizen sake server by Yoshiteru Takariki, who studied under Sozan Kaneshige and Yuho Kaneshige. Kiln-out: September 2025.

This katakuchi belongs to the Hikidashi-guro lineage that Takariki has been pursuing in recent years. What immediately catches the eye is the indigo nagare Goma—streams where natural ash glaze and cobalt intermingle.

Placed at the very front of the kiln and pulled during firing, the piece is veiled in natural ash that lends a wet luster across the surface. Around the foot the skin turns markedly metallic, with subtle shifts in tone that highlight the quiet mysteries of both Hikidashi-guro and light.

Inside, on a clay tone that has shifted to gray, indigo Goma pools just as it does on the front—an image that feels at once alive and mineral, like ore resting on a riverbed.

True to Takariki’s style, the orthodox, well-balanced form makes the piece approachable; for all its enigmatic scenery, it remains a practical, highly usable Sake pourer.
